This line of fabric came out about 3 years ago and I bought a block of the month from Craft Town in Pekin, INdiana. They were very helpful, but at that time I did not have the skills to put it together and I just tossed it all in a tub and forgot about it until I retired. Then I discovered Bonnie Hunter. i watched videos and watched them repeatedly and finally I found my scant quarter inch seam, an Oliso iron that Missouri Star quilt co. uses.
I finally had the courage to get Fresh Lilacs out and I'm pleasantly surprised.
No I did not put it together. That is one of my worst skills. my father was colorblind and even though I'm not supposed to have it, I flunk one of those tests now and then. I think if my eyes are tired. So I have solved that problem by buying from the full line of someone's fabric. Fresh Lilacs just sang to me and I bought layer cakes and half yard bundles as well as the block of the month. I've run out of some of them and had to shop on ebay to fill in. What this really needs is the off white fabric that came with the block of the month. But I'm out.
Those corner stones were a dark purple, but not the darkest purple.
Something that is out now that is sort of close is Arabella also by Maywood designed by Sue Beaves. I only have a jelly roll. It goes toward the blue.
I'm trying very hard to use up all the scraps. I'm going to be 71 and I figure I have another 25 or so years to use up my stash. My friends roll on the floor when they hear me say that.
But at the quilt show today I just bought patterns and books. Shop hop tomorrow will be different.
I"ll post the pics of the other ones I have made. Thanks so much for all your input.
